Brian Goodwin was placed on the 10-day disabled list with a left groin strain, joining a long list of Washington Nationals outfielders currently sidelined with injuries. Goodwin was placed on the DL retroactive to Aug. 14. He joins Bryce Harper (hyperextended knee), Ryan Raburn (trapezius strain), Jayson Werth (foot contusion) and Adam Eaton (torn ACL). Eaton said Wednesday he has not ruled out the possibility of returning this season from his April injury, and has been running and swinging a bat for the past couple weeks. "I'm going to give myself the best chance whatever I can as humanly possibly for my knee," Eaton said. "I have to listen to my knee at the end of the day, my knee is going Continue to Article

Dusty Baker talked after Michael A. Taylor returned from the Disabled List this past weekend about getting some of his injured players back in time for the stretch run. “We got Michael back today,” Baker said, “and hopefully nothing else happens and then we expect and hope to get [Jayson] Werth and [Trea] Turner back in a couple weeks, we’re unsure about Koda Glover, and so he’s progressing, so it will be like getting a whole new fresh team down the stretch if things go right. “That’s why I just believe in the bottom of my heart that some of this is already written, that some of these guys are going to show up like the cavalry, right on time, and be fresh down the stretch drive and be a lot fresher Continue to Article

Jered Weaver, the accomplished right-hander who signed with the Padres in February, on Wednesday announced his retirement following 12 seasons in the majors. Weaver, 34, made his last start, arguably the worst of his career, on May 19. He walked off the mound at Petco Park to boos after allowing seven runs and recording only two outs. He went on the disabled list the next day with hip inflammation. In his lone rehab appearance, a June 22 outing with Triple-A El Paso, he allowed three runs over as many innings. "I've decided to step away from baseball,” Weaver wrote in a statement released by the Padres. “While I've been working hard to get back on the mound, my body just will not allow me to Continue to Article

Brian Goodwin is just the latest Washington Nationals’ outfielder to go down with an injury. “He just had a little tightness in his leg, in the groin,” Dusty Baker said Sunday. “So we didn’t want to take any chances. So, they’re working on him now, they’re going to evaluate it. It’s getting tough, I’m glad we got bodies and quality players.” Baker was asked for an update before Tuesday’s matchup with the LA Angels, but he said not much had changed since he last spoke to reporters. “It’s only been one day,” Baker explained, “I haven’t talked to my trainer about it but I know he can’t — unless he’s found some miracle drug it’s probably the same, because he’s not dressed today, so I haven’t had Continue to Article
